Sky high lumber prices = thinking outside the box.

1) does not look legit to me.
2) someone posted not long ago one of these that a predator tore though like it was nothing and ate all the chickens.

If I get a chance later, I'll try to track it down.

No problem you already confirmed my suspions as to how legit it is and I was already thinking about how to attach a predator screen to it,doesn’t seem feasible either ?
Thanks for the input, Frank

I saw that those Alumi Coops were made in the USA yet look at this it’s a Chinese Company I wonder if they are trying to float a cheap knock off of Alumi Coops and using their image in their ad but you get screwed with a knock off ?

Anybody know anything about this company “Vrsery.shop “that has this advertised for $97 as a weekend special?
I find it hard to believe at that price?

If it looks too good to be true it is. And it does look like a knock off version of another brand's tractor.

It's like my hubby tried to buy a German-made rowing machine off a Chinese site for $70. They sent him a SIM card instead of a rower and then said "Oops it's a mistake, wait 2 more months for the rower."

Here is a link to an article about a similar coop. They were $1-2k. I have a hard time something could be in the 5-10% of that and still be legit. Maybe at a flea market.

This is not the predator article. I have not found that one yet.

That’s interesting the OP in that thread in the link you posted never did show a picture of what she bought or anything ?

It looks fine for chicken! Modern problems require modern solutions. I like people who can find a way out of a difficult situation and still make something nice.
My wife and I have just finished building our house, and we also needed to find a cheaper solution for the house cladding. Initially, we planned it to be lumber, but the wood materials prices are skyrocketing now, and we simply could not afford that. So, we found another solution: commercial plastic lumber from https://www.bearboardlumber.com/pallets-dunnage/. It looks just like real lumber and is made of food plastic, so it’s safe. It’s also cheaper and can be used similarly to regular wood.

Do you have chickens? Are you planning on getting chickens?
